1. Jacob Charles PRIESTER was born in 1821; died in 1872. Notes:
JACOB CHARLES PRIESTER was a Private in the 3rd Regiment Cavalry of the Confederate Army, along with several other members of the PRIESTER family. He enlisted October 16, 1863 and appears' on the rolls of Prisoners of War belonging to the Confederate Army .... who surrendered at Augusta, Georgia on May 24, 1865.
In the 1870 Census of Beaufort County, Prince William's Parish, JACOB CHARLES was listed as age 50, farming with real estate of $300 and personal property of $150. Rebecca was listed as age 45. They had to children: JOHN 6, and Mary 4.
Fortunately for us, CHARLES PRIESTER did leave a Will wherein he was styled as JACOB CHARLES PRIESTER of Beaufort County, June 11, 1872. He stated that he was in feeble health, but sound of mind. His brother, WILLIAM F. PRIESTER, was to be the Executor to whom he conveyed all of his property, both real and personal. His children were mentioned, but not by name (Part of the original document is illegible). His wife was mentioned as Sara Rebecca (formerly Williams). Signed JACOB CHARLES (X) PRIESTER. Wit: D. W. Platt, W. F. Mole, H. H. Harvey. The Will was filed for probate on July 19, 1872. Apparently there were some problems with the Will as the administration returns were not concluded until 1880. By that time, Hampton County had been formed and the will was filed there in the Probate Records, Package #495.
On June 11, 1872, CHARLES PRIESTER also signed a Deed to his brother, WILLIAM F. PRIESTER, Beaufort County, Vol. 6, Page 324-325. "JACOB CHARLES PRIESTER to WILLIAM F. PRIESTER in consideration for $200.00 in hand, did bargain, sell and release all the plantation or tract of land in Peeples Township, except one acre for the Isaac Ellis graveyard, containing one hundred acres situated on the Coosawatchie Road, about one mile from its junction with the Pocotaligo Road, bounded on the NORTH by lands of the former estate of Samuel Lewis, now of George H. Hoover, and on all other sides by lands belonging to the estate of B. M. McBride." This land was also known as the upper part of the White House or Horse Tract. JACOB CHARLES (X) PRIESTER, June 11, 1872. Wit: D. W. Platts, W. F. Mole, H. H. Harvey. Recorded July 19, 1872.
JACOB CHARLES's wife, -Sara Rebecca Priester, was listed in the Beaufort County Deeds, Vol. F, Page 466. On August 1, 1873, Sara Rebecca Priester made a Deed for a gift to her children, JOHN ANDREW, and Mary Louisa. The Deed also mentioned certain livestock and personal items. H. Goethe was appointed as Trustee. In the event of his death, J. A. PRIESTER was to be appointed Trustee until the children became of age.
Signed, Sara Rebecca (x) Priester. Wit: Mary Lewis. Recorded September 27, 1873.
Sara Rebecca Priester later married Don J. Sinclair and had three children. JOHN and Mary PRIESTER were listed in the 1880 Census of Hampton County in the household of Don J. Sinclair.
